    The Region also subsidizes the activities of the Vysočina Council for Children and Youths – an association of organizations that work with children and youths in their free time. The Council is the Region’s partner for communication with non-profit organizations that focus on children and youths. Thanks to a subsidy in the amount of CZK 200,000 from the Region, for instance, the Council was able to issue a third edition of a handbook on summer camps in Vysočina; this overview of camps is also available in electronic form on-line.

    In 2006, the Vysočina Region provide top-up financing of 21 European projects realized as part of educational programs of the EU (Socrates, Leonardo da Vinci, and Youth) and the INTEREG III.A program, in the amount of CZK 1,194,930.

    In 2006, yet another Great Regional Experience Exchange (RVVZ), the largest gathering of children’s camp guides, advisors, instructors, and other workers of the country’s leisure-time organizations took place, with participation of other persons and entities from Vysočina, who are interested in or work with children during leisure time. The gathering was organized by the H-Hour Civic Association and was attended by dozens of participants, lecturers, and organizers. The Vysočina Region contributed CZK 30,000 to this event.
